Or more accurately, the virtual portion of the Sundance Film Festival. Due to my current day job, I don’t when I’d ever be able to attend the festival in-person. Man though, if Cincinnati would have won the bid, that would have changed things for sure. Oh, well.

Awards Season Recap – SAG & Film Independent Spirit
We are barreling towards the Oscars next weekend and there are still some categories as tumultuous as ever! I don’t know if I’ve personally ever been so unsure of what or what is going to take home the big prizes next weekend! And the SAG and Film Independent Spirit Awards did nothing to help!
Read moreMid-Week Double Feature
It’s been a hot, hot minute since I’ve watched a movie in the theater during the week, and it’s been even longer since I watched two back-to-back! Nothing like getting two foreign, independent films in on a work night.
